See what the business reasons behind this decision were. Also, find out why it's a great approach to think longterm. To think about Scalability from day one and build your scalable MVP in Scala.

The business rationale behind this decision (+ Haskell vs. Scala) Fugo.ai goes all in. They decided not only to choose Functional Programming in Scala - they decided to use #ZIO, the new library in the ecosystem. Learn why. ZIO vs. Akka, Scala Z, and other Scala frameworks. The road from Akka to ZIO Finding a sweet-spot between Functional and Object-Oriented Programming. How Functional you want to go?

    Business benefits of functional programming and how to make it work for your company

    Functional Programming is consistently gaining market share, and its popularity is growing. Why is that? Answer for CEO: Because Functional Programming goes exceptionally with business and scalability. In functional programming, there's less code, and there are fewer dependencies, so it enables you to develop different parts of your system/business independently. Especially in complex systems, it's the only reasonable way to scale. Answer for CTO: Functional programming means: Less code, fewer bugs, code open for parallel computation, and concurrent programming. But what you'll learn in this episode of our podcast is that it's not about throwing away your object-oriented program to enter functional programming. We're going to help you find your approach, whether you're a beginner or more experience in functional programming concepts. Here's some of the stuff we're going to cover in today's episode. How #FunctionalProgramming is helping the #business Strongly typed and statically typed Functional Languages Differences between strictly typed and dynamically typed languages Benefits of Functional Programming: Object-oriented vs. functional programming - why some companies still choose object-oriented languages? Ways teams can start building projects in a more functional approach Scala evangelist that creates a team from scratch The whole company decides to shift to Functional Programming Simple steps you can take to be more functional - changing the way the team thinks about the code #DomainDrivenDesign, #EventSourcing, #CQRS (Command Query Responsibility Segregation) functional nature Advice for more experienced teams How to switch to functional programming on JVM - from JVM to Scala Why are people still not choosing functional programming as their first choice? Changes in functional programming communities - FP gaining popularity. ZIO library by John De Goes - a simple solution to get functional programming benefits without the hassle Conclusions about Functional Programming future - is it going to become mainstream?

    Working remotely with an IT Contractor. How to handle trust and culture

    How to build a fully remote company? Is it easy to work with a #remotecompany on a project? We decided to find out. And the results will probably surprise you. First, a little bit of background. Scalac is a remote company (with most of our 122 employees working remotely). CloudAdmin has been Scalac's client for almost three years. Also, Paweł Gieniec, CEO of CloudAdmin, build his company based on remote culture. We decided to ask Paweł how building a remote company looked for him. We talked about #cloudsystems and #datacenters, in general, but also considering the #COVID19 situation. Then Paweł talked thoroughly about building his company and working from home. Also, we tackled the trust in working with remote agencies; thus, it's very often a concern of people who never worked with such a company before. Finally, we talked about building culture in a remote team and the influence of the external organization that joins your company. Does it affect culture? Which scenario is better - when the number of employees is growing inside or outside your startup? Find out!
